new years eve.....

was spent at our house. we usually do not go out on new years eve because it's just too dangerous to drive home from wherever you are and the prices of everything are all jacked up anyway. shannon and jason went out for the very first new year's evening since they got married because shannon always worked on new years eve. we kept scarlett overnight and kelly and ron and the girls and becky from texas came for a dinner of steak, twice baked shrimp stuffed potatoes and salad. we just spent a nice quiet evening....
watched football, played with the kids and the camera and i think don and i were in bed by 12:10 am.
this, unfortunately, was about the best it got on new years day though. michigan was blown out by usc so that was a little disappointing. but we got to watch this pathetic game on curtis and laura's brand new...57 inch...projection hdtv. wow. the picture quality was amazing. we are going to HAVE to get a tv like this...someday....
yesterday we went to a party on my mom's side of the family. more family fun, great food and a chance to see cousins we usually only get to see once or twice a year. i love this picture of us. since i am usually manning the camera, we don't get too many of the two of us.
happy belated new year to everyone.
